This renowned French techno producer, known as Manuel-M, is also the author of three ambient albums, Endurance (2008), Thirty (2016) and the newly released Forest (2022), whose serenity, cinematic atmospheres, drones and long synthetic complaints evoke the majestic landscapes that adorn the covers of his records.

The piece is based on a hypnotic loop, taken from a fragment of a classical music orchestra chord, the sound of which is largely reworked. As the composition progresses, other patterns, including inverted sounds, appear to create a sense of movement, waves, and a slight confusion.For me, the progression of "Clair Obscur" could evoke a human figure, in the grip of some kind of blockage, impasse, but also of reset. As if trying to progress against the elements, to swim against the tide, while gaining ground step by step. The bass settles in to support this desire to progress, one melody answers another to create a dialogue. Then longer notes come in to guide the evolution of the whole piece.I wanted to express this need to keep moving forward. That despite the pitfalls, life goes on. That we must move forward. That we are our own unique driving force.

Ambient is a refuge. It's a space where I get more intimate, a place where I can express my different feelings. For me there is always a duality between light and shadow. A sort of in-between, a grey area where everything is mixed up. A combination of contemplation and introspection. In my latest pieces, I try to add a brighter side to explore new horizons, but without letting go of my inner emotions, my own experience. When it comes to listening to ambient music, I enjoy the eclectic and varied sound universes that artists are proposing today. Many of them have a beautiful musical world, with very strong concepts. This music adapts to many contexts. I think that we have never heard as much as we do today. Both consciously, with active and attentive listening, and in the background in film music, documentaries, in an exhibition...

Chaconne de JS Bach, transcrite pour la main gauche par J Brahms

Alek Lee is back on Antinote to release his debut LP ‘You’. Covering 18 songs and crafted in the producer’s studio over the past few 4 years, the Tel Avivian has swapped the misty aura of his first two EPs for a smoked out haze. ‘You’ effortlessly blends digi-dub, boogie, and yacht rock to
create a washed out, dub-pop sound befitting of its place of recording sat at the edge of the desert and the sea.
If Lee’s earlier works were defined by brooding downtempo beats with kids television vocal samples sprinkled amongst them, then the album hears the producer open himself up to the process of the singer-songwriter, getting behind the microphone and optimistically speaking
words of his own. But perhaps that may be put too bluntly. Fankly, Lee fluidly moves between crooning, whispers, gasps all the way to full on ballad style singing effortlessly and with ease. His newly develop vocal experiments are too supported by an impressive array of collaborators which can be found in the LP’s liner notes. These collaborations also help to mix far-flung musical styles into the LP. For instance, take Kol Hayom featuring Keren Ilan. It’s a laid-back tune that would sit comfortably beside Rita Lee tropicália. Or Love To Puff You Baby featuring $hkuro, which upends Donna Summer’s bodily groove into a heady bop.
‘You’ is a testament to Alek Lee’s prolific exploration of his own brand of dub: shimmering off-beat guitars, low-fidelity beats and deep grooves. Oh and always a melodica line found somewhere amongst it.
